My parents decided to live at Maplewood after touring and considering several assisted living facilities in the area. While any transition of this type is challenging, the move was made easier by the patience and care of the Maplewood staff. Everyone from the receptionist to the servers are kind, upbeat, and extremely helpful and accommodating. The Lifestyle Director, [name removed], has been particularly important in keeping my parents busy with entertaining events and educational activities. There is a Garden Club, a Spanish class, a Book Club, as well as lively events each month to mark holidays. As a family member of a resident, I cannot express how comforting it is to know that my parents are so well cared for - with their medical, emotional, mental, and social welfare looked after by this lovely staff. As a family, we cannot recommend Maplewood of Newtown more enthusiastically.

While they are understaffed as most facilities are, Maplewood Newtown manages to serve the residents with care and professional help. The wait staff and maintenance workers are very good ([name removed]is the manager of the kitchen staff and does a superb job). Our aides are excellent (though we need more of them). Management could be more visible.

December 22, 2021Hi Gloria, thank you so much for your feedback! We are glad you are part of our Maplewood family. Please reach out to the executive director so she can gather details on how we can provide a better dining experience for you.
The activities are great both exercise and games as well as music, singing and dancing. The food is good but sometimes the service in the dining room needs a little more help. The apartment is beautiful and everything in the building is super clean. Also everyone looks out for you. You never have to worry about getting help.

Having lived in this community since [date removed] my husband and I found it to be secure and comfortable with caring staff members. My husband passed away [date removed] I intend to remain here as long as possible. As with most industries at this point in time finding qualified help has been a challenge, but the teamwork displayed by the current staff has been exemplary.

December 22, 2021Burnice, We are thrilled to have you as part of the Maplewood family! Thank you for sharing your kind words with us. It means the world to us and to our entire team!
You really have to be your patient's advocate. You have to check on things and make sure they're getting done. If you want your loved one to go to an activity, it's your job to say something. But our loved one is going to activities we never thought he would go to, and that's very impressive. I like the staff. They're very good. The few times I've been there, I've notices some cleanliness issues. Overall it's good, but his bathroom hadn't been checked recently. I think it's pretty expensive, but overall it's been a really good experience.

October 13, 2021Hello, thank you for taking time out of your day to provide us with a review. Please let us know if there is anything additional we can do for you or loved one.
In 2019, my husband fell at home and required rehab. Given the timing and need, Maplewood was the facility that really stepped up to accommodate. We were content right away because of the happy people like the CNA’s, the dining staff, the front desk and especially the Activity Department. As my husband progressed, so did his needs. His safety was number one and received constant attention. Each one had a special interaction. Activities would always bring him peanut butter cups. One aid would dance with him, one would have a pet name, another one would always salute him, knowing he was a Marine. All of these wonderful people are my angels! These touches made his life much better. In December, he passed away. Everyone was so concerned about me and I received flowers, many cards and lots of hugs! I will never forget the kindness, love and caring that we received while living there. I have a feeling that nothing will ever meet the love, concern and caring we experienced at Newtown.

December 22, 2021Hi Barb, thank you so much for sharing your experience. We really enjoyed having you as part of our Maplewood family! I will share this with our entire team.
My parents chose to spend their remaining years at Maplewood at Newtown. They never regretted it. The facility itself is beautiful - modern, clean and comfortable. But what makes Maplewood exceptional are the staff, who often feel more like extended family. Whether a resident is fully independent, or in need of extensive oversight, their needs are equally well met. The staff are compassionate and attentive. Medical care from the nurses is excellent. There are a multitude of activities across a wide spectrum to keep the residents engaged – lectures, art classes, live musicians, fitness classes, to name a few. I have no hesitations in recommending Maplewood to my friends and family.

Well, I thought everyone was doing a great job when I was actively able to come in the building. I'm not sure what the activities look like now, during COVID, but I understand you've got her out of the room a lot, which is good. She seems to be in quite a good mood when I talk with her.

I cannot express my gratitude to this community strongly enough in words. The compassion that they showed to my whole family not only during the ordeal of my father's passing but ever since my parents moved to Maplewood. My father often told me how happy he was to have made the decision to move there.
